Tried it with the camera off , and it's fine until I touch the shutter to focus and them it flashes rapidly . It seems to work fine in manual . I did clean the contacts but that didn't help . It's only a problem in p-tll .

I have a Bower flash that I use on my 200d , when I put it on my k5II it flashes very rapidly as soon as it's on the camera . Should it work on the k5II? Is it safe to put on the k5II ? Should it work if I set the flash to manual not p-ttl .

If I have version 1.00 do I need versions 1.01 and 1.02 or does 1.03 have all the updates ? I have never updated firmware before ,feeling a little nervous about this .

I changed my mind and bought the k5II I decided I wanted a more rugged camera . I have to say after having it for two days I'm not sorry !
The seller evaluates cameras and sells them after a few months, it had 500 actuation and came with two extra batteries , a 50mm f 2.0 m and a 200mm f4 m both in perfect condition for $800.00 . I sill can't believe it .

I have been saving for a k30 , I was just offered a slightly used k5II for the same price as a new k30 . What would be your choice ? And yes I do think focus peaking might be use full .

I have tried different settings with no luck. 55-300 & 18-55 are my lenses. I have had the camera for a year and I don't think it ever worked. I do wear glasses and you can't see the display in the viewfinde unless you take them off . Since I never looked for the on symbol in the past I really don't know if it ever went on . My feeling is that it never worked .

Checked drive mode and its on single shot . It's not worth sending it in for repair and since you can't miss what you never had why worry about it . I will have to keep useing my other form of sr ( my tripod ) . Thanks for your help .

Never understood what was so great about shake reduction . When I did test shots there was no difference whether on or off . Took my glasses off today and looked through the view finder and realized that even when the switch was on the indicator never came on . took some shots and checked the info and sure enough it is showing the off symbol . Tried default resets and also removed batteries overnight , still no luck . I now believe sr never worked . Anyone have any idea whats wrong ? ( pentax 200 d )
